Traditional mom and pop donut shop. Good quality good prices. There are so many uber expensive donut shops popping up that its becoming difficult to find a decent traditional donut shop these days. This is a small family run business - unlike Duncans or Krispy Kreme - huge corporations. There is nothing wrong with the big guys - it is predictable and familiar - but if a smaller run business does just as good or better - its great to patronize. I tend to dislike Krispy Kreme - too gooey. Soggy - greasy somehow. These donuts sold here are big and fluffy and very fresh. Tons of variety as you could imagine and a personal touch too. The area is safe and there is a lot of new construction - hopefully that means more turnover and freshness. Interior is clean and some windows to look out and enjoy.

Nice people, good and fresh donuts and they even make other stuff like burgers or grilled-cheese sandwiches. You don’t see stuff like that very often but it’s really cool…

Ordered an assortment of donuts and only received plain. What gives? An assortment usually means a variety, glazed, chocolate, etc. I only got plain. So disappointing and won’t be ordering again. Wish I could get my money back.

Bear in mind if you order a dozen or half dozen of donuts you’ll only get plain. I was so excited ordering this on a rainy day only to open the box to reveal ONLY plain donuts. I was so upset.

Donuts were delicious here. Light and fluffy. Workers were very friendly and kind. Would definitely come back here again. The buttermilk donut I had which I normally am not a huge fan of, was very good.

Your neighborhood donut shop. Donuts were fresh, but bit overpriced. Almost $2 per donut is bit steep for a basic old fashioned glazed donut.

Amazing donuts made by equally amazing people. The staff here is so friendly and always so happy. You can taste the love these donuts are made with. I try to pick up a box of a dozen donuts for our photo shoots and everyone on set loves them. I always look forward to coming back and getting more.

Amazing donuts and good customer service! The lady at the counter was so nice and friendly. She gave me donuts and wished me a Happy New Year. Her kindness meant a lot to me. The donuts are unbelievably tasty and soft. Excellent quality! I am visiting family here since I am from out of town and I haven't had good donuts like these in many years. You won't be disappointed!
